I remember being told about the comic a few years ago and really wanted to read it but never did. I'm sure the show changes a few things but if I remember right the gist is that there are these kids, teens who have supervillain parents, like a whole bunch of lex luthors or something as mom and dad, so they run away and devise a plan to stop them.

So far I'm liking the characters. The episode ends on a super creepy note and just gross. Also lol at the cult red robes how does one take that seriously in 2017?

cults still exist. and when dealing with a world that has super powered humans in it, it makes even more sense as some people might view these people as gods/devils

I enjoyed the comic, I wonder if there is any way to get it in the UK.

Damn, that casting is spot on in the way they look!

Future Man is awesome, its an R rated sci-fi comedy by Seth Roger and Evan Goldberg. Deals with time travel, has a lot of clever but also crude humor, and is chock full of funny pop culture references from the 80s and 90s.

The Handmaidens Tale is great too. Takes place in a world where the US government is taken over by a totalitarian regime that removes all rights of women due to a fertility epidemic and forces women capable of bearing children to become surrogates. Its a very heavy handed drama but it is very enthralling and has a lot of layers.

first 2 maybe 3 books were really good, but then it goes downhill very fast from that.

i really want to watch the show but i don't have hulu and i don't want to pay for another streaming service.

The asian is hot too, and has uncommonly high cheek bones, don't see that often.

The spanish speaking girl with the stupid colored hair looks more indian to me and at first it was cringey how ugly she was and crushing on the gorgeous jock dude, but I think if she had normal hair she'd actually look okay.

odd they made molly hayes into molly hernandez.

She's my favorite person in the comic. It's like making Charles Xavier, Carlos Xavier. it doesn't matter unless they replaced her personality along with it.

It is more likely because she is a mutant and licencing crap with Fox

I knew it she IS indian. I recognize her now, she once played Kid Cece on an episode of New Girl in a flashback. Yeah she's... really the least attractive of the 4 girls. Poor thing.
